Interesting cake with a good finish. You're right about the green - very weak. It seems to get washed out very quickly by the rest of the burst effect. No opinion on the mine/crackle/sizzle effects - but I do have to wonder how is all of the art work that goes into the cake wraps actually conceived. Is there some "Disney studio" equivalent for cake wraps located in China? Does each factory/company have their own art design department?
That's a great question about the art. There are a lot of great wrap designs out there. Most of the ones that jump out to me the most definitely seem geared towards Americans. I don't watch too many Chinese firework videos, but their cakes seem to be usually wrapped in plain red paper with white or gold writing and none of the pictures.
@@VermontPyroBoys802 That's the interesting thing - 90+% of class c fireworks sold in the US are made. boxed, and shipped in/from China direct to US wholesalers/distributors. There is no intervening processing. What you get here is what left China. Yet all of the wrap art is culturally correct for the USA consumer. I know brands like Raccoon, Brothers, Winda have USA based "sales/design offices" that work direct with USA distributors (eg - Phantom has some jointly designed and branded cake wraps via Brothers that are specially printed for that purpose), but I keep wondering about how the US wrap art design eco-system works - especially given the HUGE number of cakes out there each with their own wrap art and the fact that Chinese fireworks sold into their domestic market don;t have the same wrap characteristics.
@@dennisblazey3315 I'd guess that if the companies have US based design offices, they probably have American graphic designers on the payroll. I have no idea of the ins and outs of that kind of work would be but it must be a really fun job to dream up cool labels all day.
In my opinion I believe time rain is more of a sizzling effect than a cracking effect. There is no mistaking cracking and sizzling is just a little less noise . Nice demo pyro
Hmmm. I've never really thought about differentiating between crackle and sizzle. I've always just thought about it as different intensity of the same effect.
Nice 200 love the old Pin Up Girls Art in the set 🔥🔥
Totally! The wraps are literally "pinned up" on my wall of fame now 😂

Joe has a pretty good pond! I like how the pace speeds up as it goes along , the breaks and crackles spread out across the sky
All three cakes in the set have that great pacing. They really help amp up the excitement of the show.

Ya the rapid fire was awesome!
It was a really fun cake to shoot. The whole series is great. I'd definitely buy them again.
